You're also missing a major part, donorship. These picks aren't incompetence as it looks at first glance. They're deliberately picked for regulatory capture. They're going to burn it down from three inside.
Look at Dr. Oz. He got picked because of his wife's family, the Asplundhs. They're going to fuck up healthcare far worse than you expect.
